Discuss VMware 2V0-21.23 Exam Topic 8 Question 56

An administrator is deploying a new all flash vSAN cluster based on the vSAN Original Storage Architecture (OSA).

What is the minimum supported network throughput in Gb/s for each host?

A50

B10

C25

Suggested Answer: B

The minimum supported network throughput in Gb/s for each host in an all flash vSAN cluster based on the vSAN Original Storage Architecture (OSA) is 10.

vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) are only supported with 25Gbps and higher connection speeds. ESA ReadyNodes configured for vSAN ESA will be configured with 25/50/100Gbps NICs. vSAN OSA all-flash configurations are only supported with a 10Gb or higher connections. One reason for this is that the improved performance with an all-flash configuration may consume more network bandwidth between the hosts to gain higher throughput. https://core.vmware.com/resource/vmware-vsan-design-guide#sec6815-sub3

I agree with 25 Gb/s. Balances cost and performance well.

Sherrell 6 months ago

Definitely 50 Gb/s. We need high throughput for all flash.

Peggie 6 months ago

I feel like 10 Gb/s is too low for a new cluster.

Salina 6 months ago

I think it's 25 Gb/s. Seems reasonable for performance.

Alica 6 months ago

Really? 25 seems low for an all flash setup.

Keneth 6 months ago

Nope, it's definitely 25 Gb/s.

Letha 7 months ago

I thought it was 50 Gb/s? Seems high though.

Julio 7 months ago

Definitely agree, 25 is the right answer!

Ciara 7 months ago

It's 25 Gb/s for each host.

Bernadine 7 months ago

50 Gb/s? That's overkill. 25 Gb/s is the sweet spot.

Angella 7 months ago

Haha, 1 Gb/s? What is this, the 90s?

Ernie 8 months ago

1 Gb/s? Really? That's way too low for a modern all-flash vSAN setup.

Vincenza 8 months ago

I thought it was 10 Gb/s. Guess I need to brush up on my vSAN knowledge.

Nana 8 months ago

The correct answer is C) 25 Gb/s. That's the minimum required for a vSAN OSA cluster.

Miles 9 months ago

I thought it was 10 Gb/s too, but I could be confusing it with the requirements for a different setup.

Sherman 9 months ago

I’m leaning towards 50 Gb/s, but I might be mixing it up with another technology.

Hershel 9 months ago

I remember practicing a question about vSAN throughput, and I feel like 25 Gb/s was mentioned as a common requirement for performance.

Kristine 9 months ago

I think the minimum supported throughput for vSAN OSA is 10 Gb/s, but I'm not entirely sure.

Juliann 9 months ago

I'm pretty confident the answer is 25 Gb/s. The question specifies the "vSAN Original Storage Architecture", and that's the key detail that points to the 25 Gb/s requirement.

Rasheeda 9 months ago

Wait, is it really 25 Gb/s? I thought the minimum for vSAN was only 10 Gb/s. I'm going to have to double-check that before answering.

Merissa 10 months ago

Okay, I've got this. The minimum network throughput for a vSAN OSA cluster is 25 Gb/s per host. That's option C.

Alise 10 months ago

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with the vSAN OSA, so I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to review my notes on the different vSAN architectures.

Frank 10 months ago

I think the key here is to focus on the "vSAN Original Storage Architecture" part of the question. That should give us a clue about the minimum network throughput required.

But isn't 25 Gb/s more future-proof for performance?

Juan 4 months ago

↳ replying to Frank

Right! It seems like 10 Gb/s is the baseline for most setups.

Bettyann 5 months ago

↳ replying to Frank

I agree, the OSA is crucial for understanding the requirements.
